Bow down to king Ed Sheeran!
The “Castle on the Hill” singer is set to receive the Hal David Starlight Award at the 2017 Songwriters Hall of Fame induction ceremony this June. Can you say music royalty?!
The award was established in 2004 to recognize young songwriters who have made a huge impact on the music industry. Co-chairs Kenneth Gamble & Leon Huff thought Ed was a perfect fit:
“Ed Sheeran has accomplished so much in pop music that it is hard to believe he is only 26. He is not an overnight sensation, however, having immersed himself in songwriting, recording and performing since his early teens. His natural talent as a singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer has brought him well-deserved success.”
